“With Czech shrapnel in my hair”

hourA week ago, Checo Perez walked out to the Imola chicane and, on the way to his motorcycle, chatted with José Maria Rubio, a journalist and photographer who is the most veteran of Formula 1 in Spain and an employee of MARCA. “The faces were huge, and the damage was caused by the mistake, but in Monaco he didn’t even see me, and I even had scars on my hair.”says José Maria, “I was confused, lost my sight and was still hallucinating.”

Yesterday he was one of a dozen journalists standing on the rise to the Monte Carlo casino. when Magnussen ingeniously tried to fit three cars where only two could fit, for 80 yearswhere the street also turns, where everyone knows that this is not possible, even his partner, who didn’t even apologize.

And Cheko, like the two Haas, ended up devastated, the financial sum exceeding 3 million euros and who inexplicably remained without sanctions, but with great consternation. “And with injuries like my stomach and when I showered at night, pieces of carbon fiber kept falling out of my hair. It even got into my socks, so it hurt when I walked,” Rubio says.

Photos of Italian photographer Andrea lying on the ground surrounded by “shrapnel” that went viral around the world “were taken unintentionally. I was filming a car turning scene.When I saw him coming towards us, I continued to shoot, but without looking, and without looking, I also shot at Andrea. He screamed a lot, and I had already left the cell to look after him. He was taken away by ambulance but then he came back, limping, with bandages, and I stayed to guard his yellow cells,” says José Maria.

“Everything was filled with carbon fiber and honeycomb foam. and we were all left in pieces with small wounds, and the feeling that thank God this happened in Monaco, and if it’s somewhere else, it takes us all away, because the spoiler went into the fence like a blade,” says the photographer -veteran

Aid personnel and doctors who arrived at the scene to examine the three drivers and remove the injured man questioned those present about their physical condition and, once the area was under control, they continued the race. Everyone continued the race, even the photographers.

“We all know the 17 pages that we sign before every race, journalists and photographers.and which we don’t even read anymore, but which are headed by the famous “Motorsport is dangerous… you know what you’re getting into and if anything happens, you have insurance”…
